At Target this lady told her son he couldn’t have a Wonder Woman doll because “that’s for girls” and then bought her daughter the same one. It got me thinking about how often I see people bar young boys from appreciating girls/women as protagonists and heroes, and my own experience with it as a kid.

Philosophy Infomercial by Existential Comics

For Socrates, the main focus of his philosophical life was to tear down the pretensions of the so called “wise men” of Athens. He famously said “all that I know is that I know nothing”, meaning that unlike the others, he was at least wise enough to realize the extent of his ignorance. For him, teaching philosophy was as much about unlearning what you thought you knew, as it was teaching the truth about the world. Of course, in practice, when you learn a bit of philosophy the exact opposite occurs, and after a couple classes you think you understand all of the deepest mysteries of the universe. What can you do though?

SQUEEEEE!

why are bats stigmatized as being creepy?

I mean

look at these things

they’re like tiny

fluffy

dragons

but instead of breathing fire they squeak and cuddle 

in caves

and leaves

and they have funny ears and noses

I mean really

bats are amazing
